Usage notes

 * The pronunciation in careful speech is “-ha”, but the “h” is in the process of being lost. Some speakers currently use “-a” after a consonant and “-ha” after a vowel or diphthong, and some others use “-ya” after vowels and diphthongs instead, but it's most-common for it to assimilate to the preceding sound:
 * “-a” after a consonant
 * “-ha” after the vowel “a”
 * “-wa” after the vowel “o”/“u”
 * “-ya” after the vowel “e”/“i” and the diphthong “ay”
 * It might also be spelled as when it's pronounced as “-a”, “-wa” or “-ya”.
 * The form with “h” attracts stress to the syllable before it automatically. The form with a dropped “h” still behaves this way for some speakers, but others allow the automatic stress rules to take precedent:
 * can only be pronounced katábha, but can be either katába or kátaba.
 * can only be pronounced jarríbha, but can be either jarríba or járrba.

Suffix

 * 1) A suffix forming the plural of a noun. Used for most nouns in colloquial language and inanimate nouns in formal language.

Usage notes
Although not reflected in all writing, this suffix should not attach the ه to the preceding character, though neither should any space should be written. In computing, this is accomplished with a zero-width non-joiner. For example, while some may write the plural of as شبها or شب ها (typically for convenience, as many Persian keyboards do not have a ZWNJ), the preferred normal form would be, with the ب and ه separated, but without a substantial amount of intermediary space. Though this rule is not compulsory in general, and the suffix may be joined to the preceding word or separated, if the preceding word ends in a silent ه, it must be separated.

Suffix
